In elementary school, we used to sing, "This land is your land, this land is my land." But out in the playground and at the arcade, we heard another tune: that no matter how hard we worked, and even if we kept our heads down, many in our nation were never going to accept us as equally American as our white fellow citizens.


In our local Central California coastal elementary schools the kids all wear black and white uniforms to school. That's because out on the playground the kids are divided into newcomers Surenos and second generation Notrenos from Mexico. If you wear red or blue you will be beaten or worse. Nothing to do with the few remaining white kids.

>>a Somali refugee who disagreed with the president on policy.

Ha. Anti-American, anti-Israel, anti-semite, anti-white, pro-racist far Left loon.

Her level of foul mouthed discourse and raw hate for this country was what prompted the comment. And the quote is redacted, he said come back when you fix things in Somalia. Your country sucks and you stand here to denigrate this country? You don’t have to stay in America if you don’t like it.

She publicly laughs about “fears” about Alqaida.

“This land is your land, this land is my land.” was written by a pinko dip sh**. That little ditty was nothing less than an indoctrination song.

IT takes three generations to earn the culture, heritage and norms of America.
That is why they said it takes three generations to get the native dirt out from under the fingernails of immigrants. It takes that long to erase the image of their native lands.

“Lakshmi is an ACLU Artist Ambassador.....”

Right there, this individual tells me everything that I need to know.

“who disagreed with the president on policy.”

Way to dilute things, “Padma”

She’s anti-Semitic, hateful, wrong, crude, rude, ignorant, embarrassing (at least to real Americans), traitorous, and more

No, Omar did much more than merely disagree on policy. She said a bunch of hateful nasty things about America and tens if not hundreds of millions of Americans. Oh and she’s also quite the Jew hater. Let’s not dishonestly try to sweep any of this under the rug Padma.

And no, it’s not all “brown” immigrants as you and the media are once again dishonestly trying to portray it. Omar’s own hateful antiAmerican behavior is what is at issue here - not the amount of melanin in her skin - which President Trump never mentioned.

It’s true Immigrants have been of great benefit to the country overall. I haven’t heard hardly anybody dispute that or the benefits of legal immigration. Illegal aliens however or those who show up and proceed to live on the public dole while showing profound ingratitude to the country which rescued them from often terrible conditions elsewhere and then provided for them, we could do without. Imagine if I showed up to your house without you having asked me to come. Imagine you took me in and provided for me out of the goodness of your heart. You may not expect groveling displays of fealty from me, but shouldn’t I at least refrain from telling you constantly how much your home sucks, what bad faith you have, how much your home needed to change to suit me now that I’m here, etc? You might even be tempted to tell me I was free to get the hell out if I was so unhappy with how you did things in your home. No, that wouldn’t be “racist” of you either. So you can stop lying by trying to claim it is.

What’s interesting is that Padma makes her living appearing on the cooking show Top Chef. She should realize that after writing this opinion piece excoriating the evils of white people that the audience for these cooking shows is 99% white.

My favorite label for Guthrie and the rest of the folk singing communists is banjo Bolsheviks. Pete Seeger was actually more sickening.

BANG ON! Anyone involved with the ACLU is not worth any of my time.

I was going to post something exactly like that but I read thru the comments to see if anyone else mentioned it. Good job!

This is the whore who debased herself and her family by announcing she didn’t know who the father was when she was pregnant (it turned out to be one-night-stand Adam Dell, brother of the Dell founder). I’m sure conservative Indians were thrilled about that.
